"Made in England". Faintly hand-written on it, it reads: "Joan Keep" - who I presume was once the owner. It also has a "Cheltenham" (town in the west of England) sticker on the top on the neck. At the end of the handle it reads: "When not in use must be kept in press". So lots of references with this racket. All in all, it will make a great piece of retro wall decor, a mancave gift, or a piece of sports memorabilia for the right person.

It measures 27 1/4 long x 11 3/4" width (with frame/press on) x 3" thickness (with frame /press on).
It weighs 2lb 5oz (including frame /press).

All my items are well packed, tracked and fully insured. It will arrive to you in the exact condition as pictured.
